Discuss anything and everything related to the Transformers Live Action Films franchise, which are directed by Michael Bay. Transformers 3 is scheduled to be released on July 1st, 2011. Check out our Live Action Film section here.

I realize we have no concrete proof, but everything seems to be falling in place.

LaBeouf might return for the right amount of money.Statham never directly said no. He danced around the answer, but it was never direct.Bay says no, but he's a well known liar.Don Murphy clearly stated no reboot, a continuation.Hasbro has said they want to carry on with the movies.

The Hollywood Reporter and Variety have both reported on the "secret" meetings with Bay, Goldner and Paramount. I could see one or the other, but both reporting the same thing...? Riiight.

I think it's happening. I don't know when, none of us do at this point, but you can almost count on it. Too many of these little tidbits popping up to be just coincidence.

Uhmm... no thanks. Bring on Statham or tone down the caffeine induced comedy. I liked Rosie, but if her role is to merely be a gf, then there's no point in having her there. Boring. What I want most - maybe - is for BB to speak normally. WTF! It's supposed to be about Sam and BB, right? But BB is more like a radio voiced pet robot that occasionally shows up to save Sam and bust out cool fighing moves.

Pretty much this, except for one detail:

Bay says no, but he's a well known liar.

I love this fallacy. He lied to cover up story details, but somehow in the Transformers community he's treated like a pathological liar who did it to be a jerk. I'm certain you'd all love to hear him spoil the films before they get released. That'd just make you all love him more.

Still I'm glad it's Bay doing the next films. He's the only director who can really pull off the series properly even if the Transformers fanbase likes to stick their head in the sand about it. Not too keen on LeBouf returning, but I'll manage. Never watched the films for him anyway.

If they do get shia to come back they better get him some acting lessons and cut off his caffeine supply, im getting tired of him talking like blurr all the time then shouting random names at the top of his lungs. The only humans that are actually good in these movies are Lennox and his crew but they seem to just be plot devices & cannon fodder like the robots. The franchise needs the G1 3rd season or beast machine treatment, give us a reboot but keep it in the same universe & either find a way to give the characters new looks or just replace them all. Tired of seeing cars that have been through a blender then put back together to faintly resemble a robot.

It's not a fallacy. There's no reason to assume he wouldn't lie to cover it up. He tries to keep surprises for us but we end up revealing them anyhow. He kept saying DOTM was his last, apparently it's not entirely so. Rather than fess up and take all the whining, he can at least keep some of us at bay. (No pun intended.)

I'm one of his biggest supporters, I just know he does lie to hide things from us so we're not spoiled. We ruin it for ourselves. We make him have to cover it up.

I've liked Bay as the director for this series for quite some time. I just acknowledge his flaws and propensity to lie.

does anyone REALLY care what this moron thinks? she might as well just say shia is gona black up in the next movie and that samuel jackson will play a white guy

fact is nothings been sorted or fixed so why spread rumors instead of just waiting for fact?

personally i hope they dont make a new tf movie as bay has just made them all crap and made the tfs look more like ko zoids than anything else

sorry its just people bang on about christian hayden being a wooden actor for star wars yet rosie is like a cardboard cut out. Ive seen more acting talent from one of my farts than anything she can muster up. Sorry but shes a model - NOT an actress - standing still and looking moody as if your on your period doesnt make you an actress. Judging by bay+bergs choice on having rosie in the film to begin with is like saying Jorden (katie Price) should be a singer and an acress just because shes got big jugs

Oh dear god that is a horrible picture! What the hell IS going on with her neck, that picture makes her look like she has no shoulders!

Honestly, I don't care who comes back. I don't hate Micheal Bay, I actually enjoy how he made the Transformers organic/robotic organisms and brought a sense of "realism" to the franchise. I mean lets face it, had they gone the GEEEEEEEEEEWOOOOOOOON! route, it probably would have been unconvincing and utterly ******. Don't get me wrong, I love my G1 continuity but come on. If people can accept the complete and utter bullshit that was Transformers Animated, then why so much hate for Bayformers? Animated took the characters and turned them into ugly, unlikable Japanimation garbage. The characters were all over the place, the story was crap...actually was there a story? All I ever saw of it was goddamn "filler" episodes. Now I'll admit, there is NO excuse for the lame humor and crappy characters like Mudflap and Skidz, but I can't say I was ever disappointed in any of the Transformers movies. It was what it was supposed to be, a story with over arching drama that slowly spoon fed us into climactic battle scenes with giant ass robots. And the movie delivered that each and every time, so again why all the hate? Aside from some of the designs I mean, cause I'll also openly admit I HATED Starscreams wedge of cheese design. But otherwise I think they all worked out fairly well.

Anyways, I'm sure there's going to be another movie, reboot or continuation, I don't care.

If it's a continuation, I want:-less human story elements-more aerial combat scenes (the one from TF1 was too short)-clips of the Autobots helping humans in cities (non-combat scenarios), Autobots should not be confined to a military base when not in action-more colors on TFs (Bots and Cons)

If it's a reboot, I want:-less human story elements-unknown actor(s)/actress(es)-less skeletal and insect-like designs-more colors on TFs (Bots and Cons)-killing a TF takes more than a few shots, and less decapitations

Or Hasbro can spend the money and make the 86 movie into 3D for the 30th anniversary in 2016

But, no one likes Chip Chase.

Don't mock him, if he can rip a 5 inch floppy like paper, imagine what he can do to you.

What the heck?! I thought she looked pretty hot in the movie, but this has got to be the most unflattering... GAH! I don't even care about what she was talking about! Her head IS on backwards! The only thing my mind heard when I looked at her was "quack".Oh, and after re-watching it without looking... I'd rather have Shia and everybody else associated with the recent films back off.
